Be Blessed Be Encouraged

1. Faith is the ability to not panic.
2. If you worry, you didn't pray. If you prayed, don't worry.
3. As a child of God, prayer is kinda like calling home every day
4. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
5. When we get tangled up in our problems, be still.
God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.
6. Do the math. Count your blessings.
7. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
8. Dear God: I have a problem. It's me.
9. Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted.
10. Laugh every day - it's like inner jogging.
11. The most important things in your home are the people.
12. Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional. (Preach it!)
13. There is no key to happiness. The door is always open. Come on in.
14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
15. He who dies with the most toys is still dead.
16. We do not remember days but moments. Life moves too fast so enjoy your precious moments. (sometimes, fasten your seatbelt..)
17. Nothing is real to you until you experience it; otherwise it's just hearsay.
18. It's all right to sit on your pity pot every now and again. Just be sure to flush when you are done.
19. Surviving and living your life successfully requires courage. The goals and dreams you're seeking require courage and risk-taking. Learn from the turtle, it only makes progress when it sticks out its neck.
20. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Yourcharacter is what you really are, while your reputation is mere lywhat others think you are.
21. No matter the storm, when you are with God, there's always a rainbow waiting.
22. Leave gentle fingerprints on the soul of another for the angels to read.
23. I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that Ilived just the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.
24. Be Blessed,
25. Be Encouraged

I liked this list. I read this quote today that I liked that one of the things on the list made me think of. It said "Holding a grudge is like being stung to death by one bee." But i don't remember who said it.
Thank you Alicia! I like that one. I heard one similar to that about "harboring unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting your enemy to die." or something like that!
How is school so far this semester?
I really liked this too. Especially the one about God wanting spiritual fruit and not religious nuts. I was studying my scriptures yesterday and came across the phrase, "Stop and Stand Still." I really liked that because there are moments where I feel like I'm running along at a super fast pace but I don't really know why, but if I'd stop and stand still then I can hear what the Lord wants from me.
